Those of us who were present in that seemingly blissful time before the 9/11 attacks remember the experience of walking into an office building as a visitor, heading straight for the elevator and probably not speaking to another soul until you got to your destination — if then.
All of that changed with the terrorist attacks. Check-ins at security, scanning your IDs, maybe X-rays of your purse or briefcase became standard procedures. No more wandering in on an impulse. Some places were a little heavy-handed in their security checks, as if they were protecting heads of state, but they backed off, mostly because the tenants complained.
